This is my 2nd time to use Les Arts Turcs Tours. THEY are simply the best. Generous with their time, knowledgeable, personable, thorough and professional. We did the Whirling Dervish event (SO spiritual - not a "touristy" thing). Then we had them arrange our tour...More

I did the Turkish tile painting class through this company on May 9, 2017. Sema and Alp were great at providing instruction and demonstration. I selected a traditional Izknik design (they had many to choose from), charcoal smudged the design onto the tile from the...More

With so many unmissable attractions within a merestroll of each other – and all set around the site ofan ancient Byzantine hippodrome – Sultanahmet is anoverwhelmingly popular tourist destination, and aprime location for visitors to be wowed on a trulyepic scale.
